Controlling airborne transmission of coronavirus and/or bioaerosols fact sheet and discussion

This is an ungraded assignment that will require you to look up a scientific journal article that examined the transmission of coronaviruses (SARS, MERS, or SARS COV-2) or bioaerosol transmission in indoor air using PubMed (Links to an external site.) or Web of Science (Links to an external site.). These search engines connect to scientifically-peer reviewed journal articles and are widely used by the scientific community to locate research articles.

In this discussion post, you are being asked to:

  1. Identify a paper that studied how coronaviruses (SARS, MERS, or SARS COV-2) or bioaerosol transmission were transmitted in indoor air and/or the built environment.
  2. Read this paper and then write a short discussion post that includes the following information:
    1. The name of the virus or bioaerosol
    2. The health risks that are caused by this virus or bioaerosol
    3. How they figured out that the virus or bioaerosol was transmitted in the air
    4. How the airborne transmission could be reduced and/or controlled
    5. The citation for the paper you found.
